    Vanessa, Thank you so much for this new way of quilting with fusible interfacing. I have been quilting for 30 years and it hasn't even dawned on me to do it this simple way. Sides coe out so even and smooth and professional looking. Mahalo from Hawaii.

    Thanks for the tip on using the grid interfacing. I did not have the grid so I tried it with pre cut 21/2 inch squares and ungirded interfacing tried to ensure I put them on straight , which worked a treat .thanks for the tip.

    I love the tutorial. You are a good instructor, even for the old folks like me. My problem is I have been trying to order a couple of things from your website and I don't understand how to get a reciept. I tried, but nothing filled out so I just shut it down. Isn't there a simple way to get an e mail reciept?

  • @cherylmahon8324
    @cherylmahon8324 5 років тому

    Vanessa, Love these towels but have one question. I cut my squares exactly 2.5 in sq , I use the same towels you use. but when I get ready to sew all the blocks on the towel, I have a lot more of the squares on the end than you do,. Should I cut the squares smaller say 2 and a quarter in? Or just fold the extra under and finish the towel as you have shown? Thanx in advance for your help.

    Hi Crafty Gemini- I would like to make a lapquilt out of this 2.5" method of preprinted squares. So I am thinking of making panels 8x8 and then sewing them together. Do Iuse the tape on each 2x8 and then (after using the tape) maybe ironing the seams open?Does this make sense?Nadine Coppage

    Would wonder under work? I do not want to ruin my iron and wonder under looks really too thin...and seems like it would immediately melt if ironed from that non-paper side....

  • @rildaking8618
    @rildaking8618 6 років тому

    Mine came up too short I ordered the towels from your video, cut 8 squares 2.5" and did a 1/4 seem allowance any ideas where I went wrong

    • @TheCraftyGemini
      @TheCraftyGemini  6 років тому

      If you used a 1/4" foot for your seam allowance then after you press back the seams it ends up bigger than a 1/4". You should sew a little narrower than a 1/4" so you end up with a true 1/4" after pressing. Good luck.

  • @Taro550
    @Taro550 7 років тому

    Hey, Vanessa, I love your videos, I have been a subscriber for a few years now! I have never seen the gridded interfacing that stuff is amazing! I have to ask you do you know if it comes in any other grid sizes than 2 1/2"? Also, the wonder tape, does that add bulk to hems? I have a project that this would be perfect for but the hem needs to be flowy and not stiff.

    • @live2skide1
      @live2skide1 7 років тому +1

      There is a list of supplies on the youtube page with this video. She sells the gridded interfacing. You can also buy it at walmart & JoAnn fabrics, or other places where interfacing is sold;
